(9) Which one, before announcing his candidacy, was asked by a reporter whether he was thinking of running and replied, ''I am not un-thinking about it'' (9 points). (10) To which was the New York Times referring when it quoted a publicist as stating that this candidate is the one best positioned to raise big bucks in the liberal Hollywood community because ''he's young, he's attractive, he's a war hero, he slept with a movie star, and he's got a good haircut'' (13 points)? Answers appear on the following page. If you score 65 or higher, you figure to be way ahead of all the other kids on the block but are not guaranteed to be employable in the productive sector.

ANSWERS TO THE QUIZ (1) Senator Tom Harkin of Iowa has won this appellation by positioning himself as the leftest-leaning member of the pack. (2) The clear winner is Governor Doug Wilder of Virginia, his lady having received a settlement from media mogul John Kluge in which she gets to keep all the income (although not the capital) from $1 billion for the rest of her life. (3) Ex-guv Jerry Brown of California. (4) Harkin -- who is proud of the label. (5) Governor Bill Clinton of Arkansas, whose various hair styles have been a recurrent issue in his state's politics. (6) Jerry Brown worked for Mother Teresa, a major beneficiary of Keating. (7) Ex-Senator Paul Tsongas said it in a 1981 book entitled The Road From Here. (8) Harkin again. (9) Political junkies will identify the quote as vintage Jerry Brown. (10) Senator Bob Kerrey of Nebraska, long a pal of screendom's Debra Winger.
